The fourth number is a smaller monograph of 95 pages on "Life Insurance Reform in New York," by Professor William H. Price. The four numbers make a bulky volume of 965 pages, without advertisements, containing a large number of papers, addresses, and brief discussions of economic topics, besides two independent monographs, embodying the results of years of careful research by two specialists. The four numbers of the Economic Bulletin make up another volume of 438 pages, devoted to book reviews, an annotated and classified bibliography, personal notes, news from the various fields of economic research, and other items of interest to students of economics. The two volumes together thus include I403 pages of material of widely varying kinds, from bibliographical and personal notes to substantial monographs, all of it of a kind to interest economists, and most of it of a kind that can be obtained nowhere else. These facts are mentioned, first, to show the members of the Association how much in the way of printed matter they are getting for their membership fee of $3, aside from the other advantages of membership; second, to show why the finances of the Association will remain in a somewhat unsatisfactory state unless we do one of three things: (I) increase our membership, (2) increase the anual dues. or (3) reduce our publications.

Book Description
Excerpt from Papers and Discussion of the Twenty-First Annual Meeting, Atlantic City, N. J., December 28-31, 1908: April, 1909 There are writers whose work deserves commendation, and yet the art of popularizing is SO prominent that the fuller view of the earlier epoch is lost Sight Of in the struggle for immediate results. A theoretic writer can no longer gain through his work the commanding place that would have been given him even a dozen years ago. Not only has he in this way lost prestige, but his work is more impersonal that it was, SO much more so in fact that he scarcely ever derives personal advantage from it. The popular speaker and writer are quoted everywhere, and thus gain a name on which position and income de pend. The theorist, however, finds few readers, and his contrasts when fresh and striking are appropriated by popular writers without credit. A man who worked for years on an important topic finally brought out a book that set Off his thought by a brilliant contrast that really contained its essence. When this was first used by an editorial writer he gave full credit. Soon editorials by. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
